I understand the frustration. Daniels afraid to make throws down the field, special teams horrific, receivers not helping.

The reality of the situation is that this was at best an 8 win football team. Yet here we are through six games at 4-2 (2-1).

We have Florida up next which is a very winnable game

Then we have Ole Miss who’s offense is just as bad as ours at home

If we win the next two games, we have a game on Nov 5th that would be for the drivers seat in the West division with 3 weeks left.

We are very young football team and this season will pay huge dividends for the next year or 2 when this is Walker Howards team.

Sit back and enjoy the ride

People are mad at the coaches for their poor decision making and game plan yesterday that didn't put our players in the best position to succeed.

We're not a good team but that doesn't excuse bad coaching

Penalties, missed tackles, blown coverages, the TE getting more targets than the 1st round WR, dropped passes, special teams is a disaster, the offense is anemic. These are all coaching issues.

Am I describing game 1, game 5 or game 6? Has there been any improvement? What's to say that there will be improvement this year or next year?

Yes. We spotted a top 10 team 10 points, then tried to get it back by being overly aggressive on 4th downs.

We were trying to play catch up the minute we fumbled the opening kick. It led to a snowball of disaster.

We can win the next two games if we don’t shoot ourselves in the foot

There must be two separate Ole Miss teams because the Ole Miss I’ve watched has a stellar offense at home or on the road.

I’m with you. This game just hurt more because we got embarrassed. I love the way things are trending and want to enjoy our awful but overachieving team.

The concern is not about wins and losses

The concern is about the process/philosophy and coaching

Coaching turn around jobs are not 3-6 year projects any longer. There’s huge fundamental flaws in our team and coaching is amateur so far.

This is not coaching. Daniels just refuses to throw the ball down the field.

You clearly don't understand the frustration. The frustration on this board flared up after yesterday's game. Because we saw numerous examples of crappy coaching.

-Special Teams play is arse.
-The Defense couldn't substitute players.
-Those 4th down calls -- you DO know that head coaches normally have a chart that they carry around that tells them when to go for it and when to punt based on score/field position, right? That doesn't take "experience" or "feel". Just basic preparation these days.

We're 6 games into the season -- making mistakes that most teams eliminate after their season opener.

Also stupid shite like running it on first AND second prior to the first 4th down attempt.

Why? We should never run a RB zone 2 plays in a row on 1st and 2nd unless we get like 8-9 on the first one.

Little things like THAT should make people VERY concerned

Exactly. If the offense and special teams looked even remotely competent and we lost close games this year, the consensus would be that we’re missing a few key players.

What we’ve seen so far is poor coaching and fundamentals from the top down and a team that’s managed to squeak out wins against Miss State and Auburn because of some difference making players.
